With Adam Pearce stepping down, PWInsider is reporting that Joey Ryan will be taking over booking for NWA Championship Wrestling from Hollywood. For the first taping of the changes on February 12, Excalibur will be doing commentary with Disco Machine, Ryan Taylor, and Candice LeRae being called in as well.

although I understand your joking, I do want to note that I honestly feel PWG should never run a weekly show on TV, even on KDOC as its too much of a financial risk as you can't book other guys that wouldn't normally be available plus the fact PWG uses talent under contract from TNA and ROH and those guys won't even allow guys under their contracts to appear on any TV unless said contracts run out or something

Yep that's why Claudio can't wrestle for them anymore. He was there in the beginning and I was like WTF!! HOLY SHIT!! Then around the time he was about to be champ is when he stopped wrestling for them

personally, I think ROH (and DGUSA as well) having contracts is stupid, considering that their indy companies, I mean I can understand that WWE and even TNA to some extent having a contract with their guys, its restrictive on their guys to take other bookings anyways and especially with ROH as at the time it was for their TV except ROH now doesn't have a TV deal currently, the only main positive about this contracts from indy feds is the fact none of this will ever effect PWG in a major way anyways

and now Colt apparently lost the NWA title to a guy named The Sheik except there's an even bigger issue that NWA Hollywood won't even acknowledge the title switch though I can't blame them really either

mainly ROH signs guys to contracts just to block them from working working DGUSA/ Evolve, or so they don't miss an ROH show to work a conflicting show....other than that they let their workers work wherever they want i believe

Joey Ryan has been released from his job as senior producer for NWA Championship Wrestling from Hollywood. Ryan wrote that this happened on Thursday and was due to conflicts between himself and the company. He was also told he would no longer be used as talent on the television show.

Hopefully that change will be an improvement. I'm nowhere near the wrestling fan I use to be, but the NWA Hollywood shows are unwatchable to me. And I'm talking about dvr recordings. I see guys that a PWG regulars. But when I see them In NWA it's like they are purposely trying to be shitty. NWA reminds me of cheesy wrestling you see in a cheesy movie when they're watching wresting. There's nothing wrong with old school style but I can easily throw on an old school video and see the legends preform when what they were doing was innovative and I can appreciate the nostalgia. Just show PWG clips from over the years and I would be happy.

the problem with NWA Hollywood is pretty much its been a booking mess before Joey took over as booker and still lots of politics had happened between other people that fucked things over and its clear, the NWA has no real direction for itself and especially considering what happened to the NWA title as well
